Most users have already had to <\/span>replace a faulty charger<\/b><\/a>, often much earlier than expected. Chargers are fragile items, subjected to <\/span>rough everyday handling<\/b>. Twisted cable, worn plug or damaged port\u2026 there are many possible causes. Yet before buying a new charger, there are a few simple tricks to try for an <\/span>effective repair<\/b>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Identify the most common faults<\/strong><\/h2>\n

It\u2019s common to notice <\/span>visible damage<\/b>: bent USB tip, <\/span>cracked or frayed cable<\/b>, or even a <\/span>port that no longer stays firmly in place<\/b>. These failures don\u2019t always mean the charger is beyond saving. By taking the time to examine the cable, you can often locate <\/span>the exact spot where the problem lies<\/b>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Often, the damaged area is at the end of the cable, where it\u2019s <\/span>under the most strain<\/b>. If the connector pins are bent, they must be <\/span>handled carefully<\/b> to realign them.<\/span><\/p>\n

Carry out a simple, long-lasting repair<\/strong><\/h2>\n

For this repair, you only need two tools:<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  • A ballpoint pen spring<\/b>,<\/span>
    \n<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Hot glue<\/b> (or thick plastic glue).<\/span> <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
